Russianka? (Ряженка)

You can buy Raschenka in Germany (“Milchgetränk nach russischer Art”).

Now, the word ‘Raschenka’ is supposed to be the German equivalent to the original Russian word Ряженка but the way the German word ‘Raschenka’ is pronounced it sounds like ‘Russianka’ which could be a new word altogether: A combination of the English word ‘Russian’ plus the Russian ending ‘ка’. How do you like it?
